What does a paediatric OT actually help with?

Common areas include handwriting and fine-motor skills, sensory sensitivities, daily routines (dressing, eating, sleep), coordination, and self-regulation.

Do we need a referral?

Not to see an OT privately. A GP referral and care plan are required only to access Medicare rebates or certain funded pathways.

Can OT be funded by the NDIS?

Yes, typically under Capacity Building / Improved Daily Living when it aligns with your child's plan goals.

How is OT different from physiotherapy?

Physiotherapy focuses on gross-motor movement and physical function; OT focuses on participation in everyday tasks, including fine-motor, sensory, and self-care skills.

What Sigma helps with

Child & Adolescent Counselling

Safe, compassionate, and supportive environment to help young people navigate emotional difficulties and develop healthy coping strategies.

ADHD Assessments

A structured evaluation by a psychologist or psychiatrist to determine whether ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) is present. It typically includes questionnaires, clinical interviews, rating scales and sometimes cognitive testing, and results in recommendations for support and treatment.

Paediatric Occupational Therapy

A therapy that helps children and adults develop the everyday skills needed for daily life — from dressing, writing and play to sensory processing and school participation. Occupational therapists assess what is getting in the way and design practical strategies to build independence and confidence.

Sensory Assessments & Interventions

Occupational Therapy support to help manage difficulties with sensory processing and develop tailored interventions for sensory challenges.

Positive Behaviour Support (PBS)

A therapy approach that reduces challenging behaviours by understanding what is driving them and building supportive routines, environments and skills, so a child can take part more fully at home, school and in the community.

Functional Behaviour Assessments (FBA)

Assessments to gain insights into factors contributing to behaviour of concern and guide recommended strategies.

Psychology for DCPFS Clients

Psychological support for children and adolescents under Department of Child Protection and Family Support.

Individual Counselling

A talking-based support that helps people work through emotional difficulties, relationship challenges, grief, stress or mental health concerns. A counsellor listens without judgement and helps you develop coping strategies and a clearer sense of direction.

NDIS Occupational Therapy

Functional Capacity Assessments

A comprehensive assessment — typically conducted by an occupational therapist or allied health professional — that evaluates how a person's disability or health condition affects their ability to carry out daily tasks. The report is used to determine NDIS funding needs and plan appropriate supports.

SIL Assessments

Detailed Supportive Independent Living assessments in the home environment to help NDIS participants access appropriate support for safe and independent life.

Our approach

Sigma Therapies integrates psychology, positive behaviour support, and occupational therapy to support the whole person—addressing mental health, daily living skills, behaviour support, and emotional wellbeing together. The approach is strength-based and person-centred, focusing on what's possible rather than just barriers, with therapists collaborating closely with clients to guide them on their wellness journey. Sessions are tailored to each individual's goals, strengths, and preferences, with a commitment to creating real, measurable impact in daily life and independence. The team uses evidence-based modalities including cognitive behavioural therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, schema therapy, and solution-focused approaches, adapted to each client's unique needs. Therapists create safe, compassionate, and supportive environments where clients feel understood, valued, and genuinely heard throughout their recovery journey.

Working with families

Sigma Therapies is committed to collaboration that creates real change, working closely with families, carers, support coordinators, and teachers to ensure therapy is well-integrated and progress is maximised. The team believes support works best when everyone is on the same page, fostering seamless teamwork and ongoing communication. Families are treated as active partners in their child's recovery journey rather than passive observers, with the therapists providing practical strategies and tools that carers and families can use every day. Regular updates and team coordination ensure sustained progress and adaptability, and the approach is grounded in transparency—what you see is what you get, with clear communication and no hidden surprises about fees or service plans.

Meet the team

The team at Sigma Therapies includes psychologists, occupational therapists, and positive behaviour support practitioners who are highly trained, experienced, and NDIS-registered professionals. Key clinicians include director Nicholas Fares (BPsych, GradDip) with extensive experience across NDIS, schools, and private practice; Amit Londhe (BPsych Hons), a renowned psychologist with expertise in evidence-based care and NDIS service delivery; and Vedant Malik (BOccThy Hons), the lead occupational therapist and paediatric specialist with a strong foundation in client-centred, developmental therapy. The team also includes Dinithi Hettiarachi, a lead PBS practitioner with a Masters in Inclusive and Special Needs Education and over 2.5 years of experience, plus additional occupational therapists and PBS practitioners. The clinicians bring diverse backgrounds in clinical leadership, paediatric therapy, and complex case management, and remain at the forefront of best practices and evidence-based approaches.

Your first visit

An initial appointment involves a comprehensive assessment to understand your child's unique needs, strengths, and goals. The team takes time to listen to you and your family, gathering detailed information to develop a personalised intervention plan. The process is designed to be thorough yet accessible, ensuring you have a clear understanding of your child's condition and the tailored strategies moving forward. For ADHD assessments specifically, the process is structured across two appointments—an intake and assessment session followed by a feedback and report session—providing detailed diagnostic clarity and guidance. The team is committed to transparency throughout, with no hidden costs and clear communication about next steps so families feel confident moving forward.
